I feel like we looked before and it wasn't possible, but maybe I'm wrong. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/just-discovered-big-hurdle-to-lo-sleeping-in-our-room#post-498855 Fri, 11 Jan 2013 16:31:14 +0000 Bluebonnet 498855@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have an alarm keypad in our bedroom, but there is an option to turn the chime off when the door opens and closes. (We turned that off when LO arrived). When our alarm is set, if someone breaks in or a door is opened, the alarm will still sound., but it doesn't beep every time a door is opened.</p> <p>Try reading your alarm manual or calling your alarm company to see if you can disable that feature. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/just-discovered-big-hurdle-to-lo-sleeping-in-our-room#post-498849 Fri, 11 Jan 2013 16:30:07 +0000 ladyfingers 498849@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@oahujeni: Also haha uh, yeah I'm fairly loud. Especially lately. You know, with all the hormones. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/just-discovered-big-hurdle-to-lo-sleeping-in-our-room#post-498845 Fri, 11 Jan 2013 16:29:36 +0000 prettylizy 498845@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My parents have this type of alarm. Any time a door opens it goes beepbeepbeepbeep. We have a K9 alarm, any time the front door opens they go ballastic. LO now easily sleeps through those noises without waking. When they are brand newborns, they sleep through everything, as they get older they just become accustomed to it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/just-discovered-big-hurdle-to-lo-sleeping-in-our-room#post-498843 Fri, 11 Jan 2013 16:29:30 +0000 ladyfingers 498843@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Blue: Can you do this on yours? Do you have ADT? That's who ours is through. Maybe I just haven't figured out how... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/just-discovered-big-hurdle-to-lo-sleeping-in-our-room#post-498842 Fri, 11 Jan 2013 16:28:57 +0000 ladyfingers 498842@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@oahujeni: Yeah true, if we just expose him to it from the beginning I figure it won't be as much of an issue. </p> <p>@Andrea: Hopefully that will be the case!</p> <p>@oahujeni: I guess we could, but honestly, especially when it's just me and him at home, I'd rather not muffle it too much.</p> <p>@Mrs. Blue: Unfortunately, no -- it's a security measure. :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/just-discovered-big-hurdle-to-lo-sleeping-in-our-room#post-498838 Fri, 11 Jan 2013 16:27:58 +0000 MsMini 498838@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sawyer can sleep through the doorbell, dog barking, pretty much anything, so it might not be an issue ... a white noise machine near LO will help tons as well. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/just-discovered-big-hurdle-to-lo-sleeping-in-our-room#post-498835 Fri, 11 Jan 2013 16:27:37 +0000 Mrs. Blue 498835@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I know exactly what you're talking about and it drove me nuts even without a baby! Is there not anyway to change it where it at least won't go off when you're just opening and closing the door and the alarm isn't set? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/just-discovered-big-hurdle-to-lo-sleeping-in-our-room#post-498831 Fri, 11 Jan 2013 16:27:12 +0000 oahujeni 498831@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh and can you put anything over the speaker where her voice comes out of to muffle it at all? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/just-discovered-big-hurdle-to-lo-sleeping-in-our-room#post-498828 Fri, 11 Jan 2013 16:26:31 +0000 Andrea 498828@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our alarm beeps SO loudly but both kids don't care and continue to sleep. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/just-discovered-big-hurdle-to-lo-sleeping-in-our-room#post-498827 Fri, 11 Jan 2013 16:26:02 +0000 oahujeni 498827@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hopefully you will get lucky and the noise won't bother LO. Our doorbell could ring several times, the dogs can howl at the top of their lungs and nothing will wake our LO. I think because life was so noisy in the womb that he is used to it.so start getting loud now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/just-discovered-big-hurdle-to-lo-sleeping-in-our-room#post-498817 Fri, 11 Jan 2013 16:22:42 +0000 ladyfingers 498817@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm still not sure what we'll do -- have LO sleep in his crib right away, or in our room in a Rock or Pack n Play. The nursery is right across from our bedroom and we have a monitor but I don't know how I'll feel most comfortable so I'm planning to wing it.</p> <p>BUT.</p> <p>I just realized last night that there is a a potentially huge barrier to sound LO sleep in our bedroom -- our house alarm! DH had them install it in our bedroom because he felt safer that way so that if somebody breaks in we can hear it, etc. (which totally makes sense but grr, because she can be really loud). Every time you open the back door to let the dog out, the front door to come home, etc. she goes, "[xx] door, open" and if the alarm is set, beeps until you turn it off (or until it accidentally goes off). She talks even if the alarm ISN'T set, as a precaution so that even if we haven't set the alarm, we'll know if somebody comes in.</p> <p>So if we let the dog out, or if DH is working a late night and I have to set the alarm and he comes home, there's a potential that alarm lady and beeping will wake the baby.</p> <p>I know this is a specific issue, but has anybody else experienced this? Is it no big deal? Any ideas, even if you haven't experienced this? As a safety measure, you can't lower the volume, so that's out.</p> <p>The only other thing I could thing of is a white noise machine next to LO to maybe drown things out? </p>
